Systolic blood pressure and mortality.
BACKGROUND The current systolic blood-pressure threshold for hypertension treatment is 140 mm Hg for all adults. WHO and the International Society of Hypertension have proposed that normal pressure be lower than 130 mm Hg, with an optimum pressure of less than 120 mm Hg. These recommendations are based largely on the assumption that cardiovascular and overall mortality depend in a strictly incr...
متن کاملSystolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, and mean arterial pressure as predictors of cardiovascular disease risk in Men.
We compared systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), pulse pressure (PP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP) in predicting the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), stratifying results at age 60 years, when DBP decreases while SBP continues to increase. We prospectively followed 11 150 male physicians with no history of CVD or antihypertensive treatment through the 2-year qu...
متن کاملMean aortic pressure is the geometric mean of systolic and diastolic aortic pressure in resting humans.
The aim of our study was twofold: 1) to establish a mathematical link between mean aortic pressure (MAP) and systolic (SAP) and diastolic aortic pressures (DAP) by testing the hypothesis that either the geometric mean or the harmonic mean of SAP and DAP were reliable MAP estimates; and 2) to critically evaluate three empirical formulas recently proposed to estimate MAP. High-fidelity pressures ...
متن کاملSystolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) and Target Systolic Blood Pressure in Future Hypertension Guidelines.
The Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP, mm Hg) Intervention Trial (SPRINT) showed that targeting SBP <120 mm Hg (intensive treatment, mean SBP: 121.5 mm Hg) versus <140 (standard treatment, mean SBP: 134.6 mm Hg) reduced cardiovascular events 25%. SPRINT has 2 implicit assumptions that could impact future US hypertension guidelines: (1) standard therapy controlled SBP similarly to that in adults with...
متن کاملEstimating mean pulmonary artery pressure from systolic pressure: a caveat?
I thank Drs. Hooper and Wilson for their comments on my article.1 I concur completely with Dr. Hooper’s sentiments. Dr. Wilson links conflicts that arise through a physician’s relationship with industry and a physician’s scientific interest in a topic (so-called academic conflict of interest). These issues have been conflated recently by physicians who have financial conflicts. The two are comp...
